Well the good lady and I have just booked up for Marmaris in October and we hope we don't regret it. For the 1st time in 11 years we are staying somewhere other than Club Turquoise ... our second home. Don't get me wrong we haven't got tired of it or anything and had a fabulous holiday there in July but we couldn't get a one bedroom apartment flying from Glasgow during the school holidays (wish Thomson's would get their finger out). Anyway, plumped for the Grand Ideal which I have passed many a time on my walks. Can't help thinking we may end up taking a wee stroll up to Turquoise more often than not.

we stayed in the Grand Ideal in July past and had a great time. The hotel is beautiful went all inclusive and were very impressed with the food. We booked it again as soon as we got back for October so maybe see you there! Have a lovely holiday
Thanks for the update. While I thought the hotel looked good when I walked past it I've read different reports. Always think HT members tell it like it is though.

we were worried after reading some of the reports out there. The main thing seemed to be the food and service. The rooms are spotless ours had a fantastic shower. We loved the food although the lunch menu was not as varied as the evening one but we didnt go hungry. Breakfast (im not a brekkie person) was good too on the one morning I ate it I had pancakes eggs and beans yum! The waitors were friendly (as was all the staff) immediatley setting you down cold water before taking your drinks order at meal times the bar was no problem either always quick service.
Dont worry to much about the reviews as they say different strokes for different folks. We met lots of lovely people who were all enjoying thier stay as much as we were. We have stayed in the Green Nature and the Grand Pasa previously both very good hotels I would put the Ideal a bit above them overall.
Mayfair
